U/G Production Miner (Current Employee) - Snap Lake, NT - 9 March 2016
To start it was challenging to work there with management and mine operations not on the same page. It got better right at the end with proper management finally in place but then everyone got laid off due to the economy.
Pros
14 days on 14 days off, decent wages and benefits
Cons
Management, was poor in several aspects and departments

Very interesting job
Mineral Concentration Examiner (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 7 June 2013
I really enjoyed this job for the most part. Was interesting to learn where and how Diamonds were located. It was tedious work looking down a microscope for 7 hours a day. Management was not very understanding of employees with small children. Met a lot of nice people from different countries.
